NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Organization and Nature of Operations

MYnd Analytics, Inc. (“MYnd,” “CNS,” “we,” “us,” “our,” or the “Company”), formerly known as CNS Response Inc., was incorporated in Delaware on March 20, 1987, under the name Age Research, Inc.  Prior to January 16, 2007, the Company (then called Strativation, Inc.) was a “shell company” with nominal assets and our sole business was to identify, evaluate and investigate various companies to acquire or with which to merge.  On January 16, 2007, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with CNS Response, Inc., a California corporation formed on January 11, 2000 (“CNS California”), and CNS Merger Corporation, a California corporation and the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary (“MergerCo”) pursuant to which the Company agreed to acquire CNS California in a merger transaction wherein MergerCo would merge with and into CNS California, with CNS California being the surviving corporation (the “Merger”). On March 7, 2007, the Merger closed, CNS California became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and on the same date the corporate name was changed from Strativation, Inc. to CNS Response, Inc. At the annual meeting held on October 28, 2015, shareholders approved a change in our name from CNS Response, Inc. to MYnd Analytics, Inc. On November 2, 2015, the Company filed an amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation which, among other things, effected the name change to MYnd Analytics, Inc.

The Company is a predictive analytics company that has developed a decision support tool to help physicians reduce trial and error treatment in mental health and provide more personalized care to patients. The Company provides objective clinical decision support to healthcare providers for the personalized treatment of behavioral disorders, including depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder (“PTSD”) and other non-psychotic disorders. The Company uses its proprietary neurometric platform, PEER Online, to generate Psychiatric EEG Evaluation Registry (“PEER”) Reports to predict the likelihood of response by an individual to a range of medications prescribed for the treatment of behavioral disorders. The Company continues to be focused on military personnel and their family members who are suffering from depression, PTSD and other disorders through the military, Veterans Administration, and Canadian Forces. Commercial expansion is focused on payer and self-insured markets, provider direct sales to multi-physician and multi-practice provider groups, and patient direct referrals to these groups. The Company continues to expand its database, including younger adults and adolescents. 

The Company acquired the Neuro-Therapy Clinic, Inc. (“NTC”) on January 15, 2008, to provide behavioral health care services.  NTC’s operations were discontinued effective September 30, 2012. All share amounts are reflective of the reverse split.

On September 21, 2016, the Company effected a 1-for-200 reverse stock-split (“reverse split”) of its common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”),where every 200 shares of the Company’s Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the reverse-split were automatically combined into one share of Common Stock. Because the Amendment did not reduce the number of authorized shares of Common Stock, the effect of the Amendment was to increase the number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance relative to the number of shares issued and outstanding. All share amounts stated in the document are reflective of the reverse split. 

The Aspire Capital Equity Line

On December 6, 2016, the Company, entered into a common stock purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Aspire Capital Fund, LLC (“Aspire Capital”) which provides that, upon the terms and subject to the conditions and limitations set forth therein, Aspire Capital is committed to purchase up to an aggregate of $10.0 million of shares of the Company’s Common Stock over the 30-month term of the Purchase Agreement. Concurrently with entering into the Purchase Agreement, the Company also entered into a registration rights agreement with Aspire Capital (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company maintains an effective registration statement registering the sale of the shares of Common Stock that have and may be issued to Aspire under the Purchase Agreement. Under the Purchase Agreement, on any trading day selected by the Company on which the closing sale price of its Common Stock is equal to or greater than $0.50 per share, the Company has the right, in its sole discretion, to present Aspire Capital with a purchase notice, directing Aspire Capital (as principal) to purchase up to 50,000 shares of Common Stock per business day, up to $10.0 million of the Company’s common stock in the aggregate at a per share purchase price equal to the lesser of:

a)       the lowest sale price of Common Stock on the purchase date; or

b)       the arithmetic average of the three (3) lowest closing sale prices for Common Stock during the twelve (12) consecutive trading days ending on the trading day immediately preceding the purchase date.

In addition, on any date on which the Company submits a purchase notice to Aspire Capital in an amount equal to 50,000 shares and the closing sale price of the Company’s stock is greater than $0.50 per share, the Company also has the right, in its sole discretion, to present Aspire Capital with a volume-weighted average price purchase notice (each, a “VWAP Purchase Notice”) directing Aspire Capital to purchase an amount of stock equal to up to 30% of the aggregate shares of Common Stock traded on its principal market on the next trading day (the “VWAP Purchase Date”), subject to a maximum number of shares the Company may determine. The purchase price per share pursuant to such VWAP Purchase Notice is generally 95% of the volume-weighted average price for Common Stock traded on its principal market on the VWAP Purchase Date.

The purchase price will be adjusted for any reorganization, recapitalization, non-cash dividend, stock split, or other similar transaction occurring during the period(s) used to compute the Purchase Price. The Company may deliver multiple Purchase Notices and VWAP Purchase Notices to Aspire Capital from time to time during the term of the Purchase Agreement, so long as the most recent purchase has been completed.

The Purchase Agreement provides that the Company and Aspire Capital will not effect any sales under the Purchase Agreement on any purchase date where the closing sale price of the Company’s common stock is less than $0.50. There are no trading volume requirements or restrictions under the Purchase Agreement, and the Company will control the timing and amount of sales of Common Stock to Aspire Capital. Aspire Capital has no right to require any sales by the Company, but is obligated to make purchases from the Company as directed by the Company in accordance with the Purchase Agreement. There are no limitations on use of proceeds, financial or business covenants, restrictions on future fundings, rights of first refusal, participation rights, penalties or liquidated damages in the Purchase Agreement. In consideration for entering into the Purchase Agreement, concurrently with the execution of the Purchase Agreement, the Company issued to Aspire Capital 80,000 shares of Common Stock (the “Commitment Shares”). The Purchase Agreement may be terminated by the Company at any time, at its discretion, without any cost to the Company. Aspire Capital has agreed that neither it nor any of its agents, representatives and affiliates shall engage in any direct or indirect short-selling or hedging of Common Stock during any time prior to the termination of the Purchase Agreement. Any proceeds from the Company receives under the Purchase Agreement are expected to be used for working capital and general corporate purposes.

On February 23, 2017, Aspire Capital purchased 20,000 shares of Common Stock, at a per share price of $7.25, resulting in gross cash proceeds to the Company of $145,000. 

Liquidity

During the nine months ended June 30, 2017, the Company incurred a net loss of $4.5 million and used $2.7 million of net cash in operating activities. As of June 30, 2017, the Company’s accumulated deficit was $73.0 million. In connection with these condensed consolidated financial statements, management evaluated whether there were conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, that raised substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to meet its obligations as they become due for the next twelve months from the date of issuance of these financial statements. Management assessed that there were such conditions and events, including a history of recurring operating losses, negative cash flows from operating activities, and a net working capital deficit.

In July 2017, the Company completed an underwritten public offering of its Common Stock and warrants, raising gross proceeds of approximately $8.79 million. As of August 14, 2017, approximately $9.9 million under the Purchase Agreement remains available for sale to Aspire Capital.

To meet our short and long-term liquidity needs, management expects to use existing cash balances (including cash raised from the July offering), our revenue generating activities and a variety of other means, including raising funds by selling additional securities to the public or to selected investors in PIPE transactions, utilizing the Aspire line, or by obtaining debt financing. Other sources of liquidity could include partnerships and/or collaborations and/or sale of assets. In addition, we will continue to seek as appropriate grants for scientific and clinical studies from various governmental agencies and foundations. Additionally, the company expects to continue to generate revenues to offset expenses. 

There is no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain additional funds on commercially favorable terms or at all. If the Company raises additional funds by issuing additional equity or convertible debt securities, the fully diluted ownership percentages of existing stockholders will be reduced. In addition, any equity or debt securities that the Company would issue may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of the holders of its common stock.

Based on the Company’s current operating plan, management anticipates that, given current working capital levels, current financial projections, and the funds raised in the public offering described above, the Company will be able to meet its financial obligations as they become due over the next twelve months.

Recent Private Placements

Between September 30, 2016, and March 20, 2017, the Company sold and issued an aggregate of 477,000 shares of its Common Stock, at a per share price of $6.25, in private placements to 13 accredited investors, for which it received gross cash proceeds of $2,981,300. Five of the 13 accredited investors were affiliates of the Company which represented 70% of such cash proceeds.

Public Offering

In July 2017, the Company completed an underwritten public offering of its Common Stock and warrants, raising gross proceeds of approximately $8.79 million (See Note 7 for additional details on the equity financing).

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and are in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (’GAAP”) in the United States of America.

Basis of Consolidation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, an inactive parent company, and its wholly owned operating subsidiaries CNS California and NTC, which is a dormant company. There were no intercompany transactions to be eliminated on consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expense, and related disclosure of assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, including those related to revenue recognition, allowance for doubtful accounts, useful lives of furniture and equipment, intangible assets, provision for income taxes, valuation of equity instruments, and accrued liabilities. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates.

Cash 

The Company deposits its cash with major financial institutions which may, at times, exceed the federally insured limit of $250,000. The Company believes that the risk of loss is minimal. To date, the Company has not experienced any losses related to cash deposits with financial institutions.

Derivative Liabilities

The Company evaluates all of its agreements to determine if such instruments have derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the consolidated statements of operations. For stock-based derivative financial instruments, the Company uses a weighted average Black-Scholes option pricing model to value the derivative instruments at inception and on subsequent valuation dates. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period. Derivative instrument liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement of the derivative instrument could be required within 12 months of the balance sheet date. As of June 30, 2017, the Company did not have any derivative financial instruments.

Investments

On April 1, 2017, the Company entered into a Master Purchase and Option Agreement with Arcadian Telepsychiatry LLC (“Arcadian”), a Pennsylvania based Limited Liability Company and Mr. Robert Plotkin, who, prior to the transaction, was the sole member and owned 100% of the membership interests in Arcadian. The Company made a $100,000 capital contribution to Arcadian and issued 1,000 shares of Common Stock to Mr. Plotkin for a membership interest equal to 10% of the outstanding membership interests, together with any and all rights, privileges and interests in Arcadian resulting from, associated with or arising from the purchased membership interests. The value of the 1,000 shares of Common Stock issued on the date of the grant on April 1, 2017, was valued at $5.90 per share for a total of $5,900. On June 19, 2017, the Company made an additional $20,000 capital contribution to Arcadian.

Fair Value Measurements

The fair value of financial assets and liabilities that are being measured and reported are defined as the exchange price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants in the principal market at the measurement date (exit price). The Company is required to classify fair value measurements in one of the following categories:

Level 1 inputs are defined as quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date.

Level 2 inputs are defined as inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the assets or liabilities, either directly or indirectly.

Level 3 inputs are defined as unobservable inputs for the assets or liabilities. Financial assets and liabilities are classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment, and may affect the valuation of the fair value of assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy levels.

The Company had no financial assets and liabilities that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2017, and September 30, 2016.

Accounts Receivable

The Company estimates the collectability of customer receivables on an ongoing basis by reviewing past-due invoices and assessing the current creditworthiness of each customer.  Allowances are provided for specific receivables deemed to be at risk for collection which as of June 30, 2017 and September 30, 2016 are $1,200 and $1,200 respectively.

Furniture and Equipment

Furniture and Equipment, which are recorded at cost, consist of office furniture and equipment which are depreciated, over their estimated useful life on a straight-line basis.  The useful life of these assets is estimated to be between three and five years.  Depreciation expense on furniture and equipment for the nine months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 was $11,400 and $2,300 respectively.  Accumulated depreciation at June 30, 2017 and 2016 was $75,900 and $64,500, respectively.

Long-Lived Assets

As required by ASC 350-30 the Company reviews the carrying value of its long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the historical cost-carrying value of an asset may no longer be appropriate. The Company assesses recoverability of the carrying value of the asset by estimating the future net cash flows expected to result from the asset, including eventual disposition. If the future net cash flows are less than the carrying value of the asset, an impairment loss is recorded equal to the difference between the asset’s carrying value and fair value. No impairment loss was recorded for the nine- months ended June 30, 2017 or 2016. 

Intangible Assets 

Costs for software developed for internal use are accounted for through the capitalization of those costs incurred in connection with developing or obtaining internal-use software. Capitalized costs for internal-use software are included in intangible assets in the consolidated balance sheets. Capitalized software development costs are amortized over three years. Costs incurred during the preliminary project along with post-implementation stages of internal use computer software development and costs incurred to maintain existing product offerings are expensed as incurred. The capitalization and ongoing assessment of recoverability of development costs require considerable judgment by management with respect to certain external factors, including, but not limited to, technological and economic feasibility and estimated economic life. At June 30, 2017, the Company had $101,200 in capitalized software development costs. The Company started amortizing the software over its estimated economic life once it was placed into service in September 2016. Amortization was $20,200 for the nine months ended June 30, 2017 and $0 for the nine month ended June 30, 2016.  Accumulated amortization on the intellectual property was $22,400 and $2,200 at June 30, 2017 and at September 30, 2016 respectively.

On November 23, 2011, the Company acquired intellectual property in the form of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) biomarkers at a cost of $21,200 which was recorded at cost and is being amortized over its estimated useful life of 10 years on a straight-line basis. Amortization was $1,600 for the nine months ended June 30, 2017 and $1,600 for the nine month ended June 30, 2016.  Accumulated amortization on the intellectual property was $11,800 and $10,200 at June 30, 2017 and at September 30, 2016 respectively.

Accrued Compensation

Accrued compensation consists of accrued vacation, accrued bonuses, and accrual of withholding taxes on certain common stock awards. The accrued compensation was $546,200 as of June 30, 2017 and $587,200 as of September 30, 2016.

Deferred Revenue

Deferred revenue represents cash collected in advance of services being rendered but not earned as of June 30, 2017 and 2016. This represents a philanthropic grant for the payment of PEER Reports ordered in a clinical trial for a member of the U.S. Military, a veteran or their family members, the cost of which is not covered by other sources. These deferred revenue grant funds total $45,900 as of June 30, 2017 and September 30, 2016.

Revenues

The Company recognizes revenue on services, being the delivery of PEER Reports to medical providers, in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC No. 605, “Revenue Recognition.”  In all cases, revenue is recognized when we have persuasive evidence of an arrangement, a determinable fee, when collection is considered to be reasonably assured and the services have been delivered.

Advertising Expenses

The Company charges all advertising expenses to operations as incurred. For the nine months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 advertising expenses were $41,700 and $148,300 respectively.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company has adopted ASC 718-20 and related interpretations which establish the accounting for equity instruments exchanged for employee services. Under ASC 718-20, share-based compensation cost to option grantee, being employees, directors and consultants, and is measured at the grant date based on the calculated fair value of the award. The expense is recognized over the option grantees’ requisite service period, generally the vesting period of the award. 

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which the temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.  The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.  Valuation allowances are recorded, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

ASC 740 seeks to reduce the diversity in practice associated with certain aspects of the recognition and measurement related to accounting for income taxes.  The Company adopted the provisions of ASC 740 and have analyzed filing positions in each of the federal and state jurisdictions where required to file income tax returns, as well as all open tax years in these jurisdictions.  We have identified the U.S. Federal and California as our “major” tax jurisdictions.  Generally, we remain subject to Internal Revenue Service examination of our 2013 through 2015 U.S. federal income tax returns, and remain subject to California Franchise Tax Board examination of our 2012 through 2015 California Franchise Tax Returns.  However, we have certain tax attribute carryforwards which will remain subject to review and adjustment by the relevant tax authorities until the statute of limitations closes with respect to the year in which such attributes are utilized.

We believe that our income tax filing positions and deductions will be sustained on audit and do not anticipate any adjustments that will result in a material change to our financial position.  Therefore, no reserves for uncertain income tax positions have been recorded pursuant to ASC 740.  In addition, we did not record a cumulative effect adjustment related to the adoption of ASC 740.  Our policy for recording interest and penalties associated with income tax based audits is to record such items as a component of income taxes.

Comprehensive Income (Loss)

ASC 220-10 requires disclosure of all components of comprehensive income (loss) on an annual and interim basis.  Comprehensive income (loss) is defined as the change in equity of a business enterprise during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owner sources.  The Company’s comprehensive income (loss) is the same as its reported net income (loss) for the three months and nine months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016.

Earnings (Loss) per Share

Basic earnings (loss) per share are computed by dividing income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share takes into account the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue Common Stock were exercised and converted into Common Stock.

Restatement of Prior Period

The condensed consolidated financial statements for the Company’s fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2016 were restated to reflect: (i) the proper accounting treatment of the issuance of Commitment Shares with Aspire Capital as offering costs netted against additional paid in capital as part of stockholders equity and to reverse the associated amortization expense recorded therewith, and (ii) the effect thereof on the Company’s accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements. The incorrectly classified balance sheet item was non-cash in nature and the Company’s original report did not overstate available cash and cash equivalents nor did it understate its losses for the period. In connection therewith, on March 30, 2017, the Company filed with the SEC a report on Form 8-K reporting the restatement, as well as Amendment No. 1 to its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2016. 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Apart from the below-mentioned recent accounting pronouncements, there are no new accounting pronouncements that are currently applicable to the Company.

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (ASU 2014-09) and has subsequently issued a number of amendments to ASU 2014-09. The new standard, as amended, provides a single comprehensive model to be used in the accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. The standard’s stated core principle is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The new standard will be effective for us beginning January 1, 2018 and permits two methods of adoption: the full retrospective method, which requires the standard to be applied to each prior period presented, or the modified retrospective method, which requires the cumulative effect of adoption to be recognized as an adjustment to opening retained earnings in the period of adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the pending adoption of ASU 2014-09 on its consolidated financial statements and has not yet selected the transition method. The Company is currently evaluating the method and timing of its adoption and impact of adopting this new standard on its consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). This ASU requires that a lessee recognize lease assets and lease liabilities for those leases classified as operating leases. The guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and will be applied at the beginning of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach. This ASU may have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements. The impact on the Company’s results of operations is currently being evaluated.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. This ASU simplifies several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, accounting for forfeitures, and classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. The guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, with early adoption permitted. The guidance will be applied prospectively, retrospectively, or by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to equity as of the beginning of the period in which the guidance is adopted, dependent upon the specific amendment that is adopted within the ASU. The adoption of this new guidance did not have a material effect on the consolidated results of operations, cash flows, and financial position.

In December 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230). Restricted Cash: this update clarifies how entities should present restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents in the statement of cash flows. The new guidance requires a reconciliation of totals in the statement of cash flows to the related cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash captions in the balance sheet. The new standard is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017 with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect that the updated standard will have on our financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2017-04, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. The update removes Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. The new standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019, although early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect that the updated standard will have on our financial statements. 

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, “Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting,” to provide clarity and reduce both diversity in practice and cost complexity when applying the guidance in Topic 718 to a change to the terms and conditions of a stock-based payment award. ASU 2017-09 also provides guidance about the types of changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award that require an entity to apply modification accounting in accordance with Topic 718. For all entities, including emerging growth companies, the standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and for interim periods therein. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Common and Preferred Stock

Reverse Stock Split

At the Company’s annual stockholders meeting held on October 28, 2015, (“2015 Stockholders Meeting”) stockholders approved an amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation (the “Charter”) to increase the number of shares of Common Stock authorized for issuance from 180,000,000 to 500,000,000 shares.

Also at the Company’s 2015 Stockholder Meeting, its stockholders approved an amendment to the Charter for the purposes of effecting a reverse Common Stock-split at a later time and at any time until the next meeting of the Company’s stockholders which are entitled to vote on such actions, by a ratio of not less than 1-for-10 and not more than 1-for-200, and to authorize the Board of Directors (“Board”) to determine, at its discretion, the timing of the amendment and the specific ratio of the reverse stock-split. On August 24, 2016, the Board approved a 1-for-200 reverse stock-split which was effected on September 21, 2016.

On September 20, 2016, the Company announced that on September 21, 2016 it had filed a Certificate of Amendment to its Charter (the “Amendment”) to (i) effect a 1-for-200 reverse stock-split (“reverse split”) of its Common Stock, effective at 8:00 a.m. Eastern Time on September 21, 2016 (the “Effective Time”). Because the Amendment did not reduce the number of authorized shares of Common Stock, the effect of the Amendment was to increase the number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance relative to the number of shares issued and outstanding.

In accordance with ASC 260-10 (formerly SFAS 128, “Computation of Earnings Per Share”), basic net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) for the period by the weighted average number of common and dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding during the period.  For the three-month and nine-month periods ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, the Company has excluded all common equivalent shares from the calculation of diluted net loss per share as such securities are anti-dilutive.

We use our proprietary neurometric platform, PEER Online, to generate Psychiatric EEG Evaluation Registry (“PEER”) Reports to predict the likelihood of response by an individual to a range of medications prescribed for the treatment of behavioral disorders. We will continue to be focused on military personnel and their family members who are suffering from depression, PTSD and mild traumatic brain injury (“mTBI”) through the military and veterans, and Canadian Armed Forces, expand commercially though the payer and self-insured markets, multi-physician and multi-practice provider groups as well as direct to consumer sales and seek to expand our data base includes younger adults and adolescents.

Working Capital

Since our inception, we have never been profitable and we have generated significant net losses. As of June 30, 2017, we had an accumulated deficit of approximately $73.0 million; at our fiscal year ended September 30, 2016, our accumulated deficit was $68.5 million and as of June 30, 2016, we had an accumulated deficit of approximately $67.5 million. We incurred operating losses of $4.4 million and $2.1 million for the nine month periods ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and incurred net losses of $4.4 million and $4.9 million for those respective periods. Large, non-cash, accounting transactions significantly impacted the net losses for the 2016 period.

For the nine-month period ended June 30, 2017, other expenses were $5,800. For the nine-month period ended June 30, 2016, other expenses were approximately $2.8 million, which included approximately $2.3 million as a result of accounting for the loss on extinguishment of debt, approximately $1.2 million of related interest expense and approximately $1.0 million of gain on derivative liability transactions. These non-cash charges are primarily the result of amendments to the terms of our convertible notes payable along with the issuance of warrants pursuant to our fund raising.

We anticipate that a substantial portion of any capital resources and efforts would be focused on conducting our clinical trials, the scale-up of our commercial sales organization, further research, product development and other general corporate purposes, including accrued but unpaid expenses. We also anticipate that some future research and development projects would be funded by grants or third-party sponsorship, along with funding by the Company.

As of June 30, 2017, our current liabilities of approximately $2.16 million exceeded our current assets of approximately $0.54 million by approximately $1.62 million. Whereas, at June 30, 2016, our current liabilities of $1.87 million exceeded our current assets of $0.61 million by $1.26 million, and at our fiscal year end, September 30, 2016, our current liabilities of $1.54 million also exceeded our current assets of $0.40 million by $1.14 million. During the nine-month period ended June 30, 2017, we raised gross cash proceeds of $2.98 million from private placements of Common Stock at $6.25 per share. For details of these financings see “― Private Placement Transactions―Private Placement of Common Stock ” below. In July 2017, the Company completed an underwritten public offering of its Common Stock and warrants, raising gross proceeds of approximately $8.79 million.

On December 6, 2016, the Company, entered into a common stock purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Aspire Capital Fund, LLC (“Aspire Capital”) which provides that, upon the terms and subject to the conditions and limitations set forth therein, Aspire Capital is committed to purchase up to an aggregate of $10.0 million of shares of the Company’s common stock over the 30-month term of the Purchase Agreement.

Concurrent with entering into the Purchase Agreement, the Company also entered into a registration rights agreement with Aspire Capital (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company maintains an effective registration statement registering the sale of the shares of Common Stock that have been and may be issued to Aspire Capital under the Purchase Agreement.

Under the Purchase Agreement, upon the terms and subject to the conditions and limitations set forth therein, on any trading day selected by the Company on which the closing sale price of its Common Stock is equal to or greater than $0.50 per share, the Company has the right, in its sole discretion, to present Aspire Capital with a purchase notice, directing Aspire Capital (as principal) to purchase up to 50,000 shares of Common Stock per business day, up to $10.0 million of the Company’s common stock in the aggregate at a per share purchase price equal to the lesser of:

a) the lowest sale price of Common Stock on the purchase date; or

In addition, on any date on which the Company submits a purchase notice to Aspire Capital in an amount equal to 50,000 shares and the closing sale price of the Company’s stock is greater than $0.50 per share, the Company also has the right, in its sole discretion, to present Aspire Capital with a volume-weighted average price purchase notice (each, a “VWAP Purchase Notice”) directing Aspire Capital to purchase an amount of stock equal to up to 30% of the aggregate shares of Common Stock traded on its principal market on the next trading day (the “VWAP Purchase Date”), subject to a maximum number of shares the Company may determine. The purchase price per share pursuant to such VWAP Purchase Notice is generally 95% of the volume-weighted average price for Common Stock traded on its principal market on the VWAP Purchase Date.

The purchase price will be adjusted for any reorganization, recapitalization, non-cash dividend, stock split, or other similar transaction occurring during the period(s) used to compute the Purchase Price. The Company may deliver multiple Purchase Notices and VWAP Purchase Notices to Aspire Capital from time to time during the term of the Purchase Agreement, so long as the most recent purchase has been completed.

The Purchase Agreement provides that the Company and Aspire Capital will not effect any sales under the Purchase Agreement on any purchase date where the closing sale price of the Common Stock is less than $0.50.

The Purchase Agreement may be terminated by the Company at any time, at its discretion, without any cost to the Company.

On September 19, 2016, pursuant to the Second Omnibus Amendment, the Company exercised a mandatory conversion right and, on September 21, 2016: (i) converted the entire outstanding principal balance of $6,000,000, plus accrued interest of $317,000 on all Notes into 1,263,406 shares of the Company’s Common Stock at a conversion price of $5.00 per share and (ii) cancelled all 600,000 Warrants issued in connection with the Notes.

Prior Year Revision

During the quarter ended June 30, 2017, we revised our consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2016, December 31, 2016, and March 31, 2017 to correct the accounting for certain common stock awards granted in 2015 and 2016 to board members. Previously, certain stock grant compensation was presented as prepaid common stock when the compensation should have been recognized ratably as the stock awards vested. The revision, which we determined is not a material error, had no impact on loss from operations, or cash flows.

The impact on the individual line items of our consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2016, December 31, 2016, and March 31, 2017 from the adjustment was as follows:

Consolidated Balance Sheet as of September 30, 2016:

Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2016:

Consolidated Balance Sheet as of March 31, 2017:

While there was no change to the previously reported net cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended June 30, 2016, we did decrease the “amortization of grant of common stock” and increase “stock-based compensation” by $128,000. There were no other changes to the previously issued statement of cash flows for the nine months ended June 30, 2016.

Financial Operations Overview

Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and Estimates

This management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. We evaluate our estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other factors we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could therefore differ materially from those estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 2 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report. We believe the following critical accounting policies reflect our more significant estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue on services, being the delivery of PEER Reports to medical providers, in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC No. 605, “Revenue Recognition.” In all cases, revenue is recognized when we have persuasive evidence of an arrangement, a determinable fee, when collection is considered to be reasonably assured and the services have been delivered.

Stock-based Compensation Expense

Stock-based compensation expense, which is a non-cash charge, results from stock option grants. Compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the calculated fair value of the award. We recognize stock-based compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of the underlying option.

Long-Lived Assets and Intangible Assets

Property and equipment and intangible assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of the assets may not be recoverable. If the Company determines that the carrying value of the asset is not recoverable, a permanent impairment charge is recorded for the amount by which the carrying value of the long-lived or intangible asset exceeds its fair value. Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized on a straight-line basis over their useful lives of ten years.

Results of Operations for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016

Our operations consist solely of our Neurometric Services business which is focused on the delivery of PEER Reports that enable psychiatrists and other physicians/prescribers to make more informed, patient-specific decisions when treating individual patients for behavioral (psychiatric and/or addictive) disorders based on the patient’s own physiology.

The following table presents consolidated statement of operations data for each of the periods:

Revenues

The number of paid PEER Reports delivered for the three month period ended June 30, 2017, was 90 reports compared to 50 for the same period in the prior year. The average revenue was $443.94 per PEER Report for the quarter ended June 30, 2017. The total numbers of free PEER Reports processed were 85 and 5 for the quarters ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 respectively. These free PEER Reports are used for training, database-enhancement and compassionate-use purposes.

Cost of revenues

The cost of Neurometric Services revenues includes consulting fees, payroll (includes stock-based compensation), and other costs in relation to the revenue recognized during the nine months ended June 30, 2017 and June 30, 2016 respectively.
